I’m curious to hear opinions on the best sub $500 micro brand. Style options are wide open.
There are a lot of good microbrands in this price point so I am going to give you 2 and say Boldr for Field Watches and Spinnaker for divers.
Some good calls already, I’d add Baltic and Lorier. A great thread on this exact topic here that may be worth checking out.
Wolbrook, Vaer come to mind. And Timex Has some really nice stuff.
Gekota here in the UK. I'm waiting on this being delivered
Plus I'm a fan of Vario out of Singapore and Phoibos out of Hong Kong.
Dan Henry for homage, Islander for field and divers.
Zelos. Unique aesthetic and great prices. If you order during their presale they usually have a discount of about $100 or so off.
I really like that Wolfbrook Skindiver WT.
I really like Zelos. I usually see one I like after they’re sold out.
I'll add Vario out of Singapore for some nifty designs, and they're not all about divers.
Many great propositions already. I'll add
-RZE
-Traska (in the 500ish range)
-Cincinnati Watch Co
-Undone
-Zentier
-Akrone
-Orion
-Galvin Watch Company
-Borealis
-Atticus
-Brew
